12 Days of Madison

The 12 Days of Madison began in 2019 to honor Madison’s first heavenly birthday by helping others—the perfect way to celebrate a girl whose heart was always filled with kindness. 

 

In the beginning, I selected local children who had recently been diagnosed with cancer and raised money to support their families during the holidays. While it was incredibly rewarding, it became harder each year to watch these children experience so much of what Madison endured. Sadly, many of them have also become ANGELS, just like my sweet girl.

 

This year, Madison would be turning 20. She made me a mom first and helped shape me into the person I am today. It is so hard to believe she would be 20!

 

Would you consider donating $20 for Madison’s 20th birthday to help us continue supporting local students and families in her memory?
